A piece of chocolate in particular can be dangerous for a cat or dog. “Chocolate contains an alkaloid. It causes euphoria and excitement in humans, but is a deadly poison for dogs and cats. The same is true for grapes. It puts a heavy strain on the kidneys and can poison a dog. In addition, everything salty, smoked and spicy is prohibited. The absolute poison is shish kebab, for example. Do not give animals frankly sweet foods. Not immediately, but over time, a diet rich in sugar can lead to serious health problems. Still, dogs and cats have a protein type of food. Meat contains about 50 percent protein, about the same amount of fat and up to one percent carbohydrates. For animals, glucose or sucrose are special substances to which they are not evolutionarily adapted,” said Shelyakov.
In addition, animals and especially birds should not be given alcohol. Unsweetened fruits and vegetables can be given to your pets from time to time.
